My partner and I came for a date night on a weekday. We sat outside, which was lovely, and got the last available outdoor table around 6pm. We shared the roasted cauliflower, seasonal flatbread and summer risotto. The presentation of each dish was beautiful and the taste was fantastic too! The roasted cauliflower looked like an art sculpture (see picture). We ate until we were stuffed and then made sure to pack up every remaining bite to savor later. I had white wine and my partner got an espresso cocktail. Both drinks were fabulous! The dinner was perfect - we were outside among huge trees and the service was attentive but relaxed. They brought out our dishes 1 by 1 so we had time to try them all without feeling rushed. We will be back to this cozy neighborhood spot to try their other dishes!

Single Shot is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is cozy yet stylish, perfect for a relaxed night out. Every dish we tried was fantastic, but the standout was definitely the cauliflower — perfectly roasted and packed with flavor. Can’t wait to come back!

We went to Single Shot with two foodie friends who had been there several times before. The server was casual and extremely professional at the same time, offering us good recommendations when asked. We were pleasantly surprised by not only the flavor of our dishes, but also their generous portions. We ordered many dishes to share and would order any of them again. I’ve already told several acquaintances to try the restaurant as well, and we will definitely be returning.

Lovely spot for a weekend brunch. The Eggs Benedict is great - served with perfectly cooked potatoes and hot sauce/ketchup (optional). They were able to substitute the meat option with avocado for most dishes. Would love to try out their avocado toast and the seasonal hash. The outdoor tables are super cute, perfect for a sunny summer morning. Reservations recommended. Service is nice, but a bit slow (staff is attentive, food is made fresh and takes a bit longer to arrive) - this wasn't a problem for me as I actually prefer a slow brunch

One of my friends suggested Single Shot for an intimate brunch, and even though we are from Tacoma and I was hesitant to drive all the way to Seattle just for a brunch spot, it was definitely worth it! Single Shot is tucked back in the neighborhoods near Capitol Hill where you wouldn’t even think such a modern and outstanding brunch spot would be! It was honestly hidden between older homes and apartments and would be easy to miss if you didn’t know what you were looking for. It’s a cozy restaurant inside and has nice outdoor seating as well. The decor is a modern take on vintage style, and being there feels both like stepping back in time but also living in the 2024 you only see in movies. The staff are all extremely friendly with customers as well as with each other. I was new, but I could tell based on watching staff and patrons interact that there are a lot of regulars. I was given a heads up that the food is large, so we decided to do family style dining, and it was truly large servings! I was shocked by how large a single pancake was!! Between the three of us, we still had leftovers! Everything is homemade and uses fresh ingredients too! Even the toast was impressive and toast is usually the leftover filler for small meals, but not here! I cannot wait to come back!

Upscale casual gastropub with a twist! Great cocktails (and yes they have some Green Chartreuse left). I had the housemade Focaccia (Capers, Leeks, Black Garlic Butter, Herbed Ricotta) ; the housemade Tagliatelle (Braised Rabbit, Bacon, Cream, Parmesan Cheese) ; and the Cannoli (Pistachio Ricotta Filling, Chocolate Sauce). Everything was delicious. Frankly, I don't know why I haven't heard about this well hidden gem before yesterday. Will absolutely come back!
